@davidclowery: Apple Music Slams Spotify on Antitrust Lawfare

Since the launch of Apple Music Spotify has been on a not so secret “lawfare” campaign against Apple by trying get federal, state and EU authorities to investigate Apple for antitrust violations.

As performers and songwriters you should be concerned about this for two reasons:

Apple Music as an all subscription service pays more than Spotify.

But more importantly, antitrust rules and laws as interpreted by the Department of Justice are now being routinely used to further entrench dominant companies like Amazon and to force creators to accept ridiculously low payments for their works.
